Alex Galchenyuk

Last year on April 5th, the Panthers clinched the Atlantic Division title with a 4-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens.

Then Panthers coach Gerard Gallant was a finalist for the Jack Adams Coach of the Year award for directing a franchise-record 103-point season.

Despite Jonathan Marchessault’s 30th goal, the Canadiens downed the Panthers 4-1 in front of a predominately pro-Habs crowd in the BB&T Center Monday to clinch the Atlantic with their fifth straight win. The sixth-place Panthers ran their losing streak to five while playing out the string of a dismal season.
